ChiKat - I'm exactly the same way as you. I like staying up late, sleeping in, my best hours are in the evening. I don't mind people asking questions when I first get into work, but don't even think of asking me to do anything remotely complex before my first cup of coffee is finished.
Oh, wow. This place looks great. Oh, I feel like a witch in a magic shop.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

I don't like mornings, and am offended if I have to get up before about 8am or so. 6am is an unholy hour, and no reasonable person should ever have to wake that early.
However, I'm not so much cranky in the mornings, as blurry.
Ask meara about how I try to squeeze the sleep out of my head. She and the gf were very amused by this last Sunday morning.

I have to hit snooze at least three or four times in the morning before I have a hope of opening my eyes or forming words. And I'm not so good with sentences until I've had a cup of tea. Or three.
I get a lot of exercise in my job, but I still need some sugary treats at about three in the afternoon to stop me getting dozey. Sour Skittles are my current favourite.

Also, I think I regress considerably during the wake-up period, and am often still three years old first thing in the morning.

Me too. Morning!Susan has at least 50% more whining and petulance if anything disrupts The Routine.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Some days I am just like all you non-morning people describe, other days are spring out of bed ready to take on the world. I wish I knew what made the difference.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I wish I knew what made the difference.
For me, eating enough the previous day is a huge determiner of my morning alertness or lack thereof. I have granola bars stashed in my nightstand for that very reason.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The method of being woken up determines my mood. If I'm gently woken up with a small shake or a nice tone of voice, then I'm fine. If an outside noise (dog barking, loud tv, heat, cold) wakes me up, I should not interact with anyone for about an hour. It's evil at it's purest. Other than that, I have no pattern. I function just as well if I wake at 6 or if I wake at noon.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I am listening to Caetano Veloso on Launchcast AIFG. That is all.

I love you Seanie. Bunches an bunches.
